Record-Breaking Performance From Applications to Disk

For more than 30 years, Oracle has set the standard for performance, efficiency, and value. Now Oracle's hardware product families continue this trend, posting world-record benchmark results across different operating systems running on everything from small, single-processor servers to the largest SMP systems and clusters. From applications to disk, Oracle offers complete solutions that span hardware architectures, operating systems, and software packages and deliver extreme performance, scalability, and reliability.

BENCHMARK HIGHLIGHTS

Oracle delivered the world's fastest database performance on the SPARC Supercluster configuration using 27 SPARC T3-4 servers and Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition with Oracle Real Application Clusters and Oracle Partitioning. This new world record TPC-C benchmark beat the next best result posted by IBM by nearly 3x in throughput performance while delivering more than 3x better response time for new order transactions, and represents 26 percent better price/performance. These results clearly demonstrate that Oracle's integrated approach to engineering hardware and software together delivers industry-leading performance.

Oracle set nine world records with its Oracle SPARC T3 servers on prominent applications and industry-standard benchmarks representing a variety of workloads, from Web and application tiers to virtualization and OLTP. These results demonstrate that Oracle's SPARC T3 servers with Oracle Solaris deliver unmatched scalability, availability, and performance for the most demanding enterprise applications.
